I know for sure that there is no way he would quote this piece--painted and shipped for <400.

You know for sure? Well, I still have the PM saved and I just looked it up. LT quoted me $485 picked up for the lip. And that's after asking him for a price for local pickup paying cash (and prepaid) with recommendations from other members saying to go to him

That's my issue there. One guy lives in Virginia, the other in Washington. Shipping for the oversized lip won't be cheap, however it costs only a couple of bucks more to the person far away opposed to a local pickup. If I could get the lip myself for around $300 unpainted from the dealership (like Tischer's price, but they're not local) then I could get it painted myself from a shop I've gone to in the past (who will do a non-metallic job for $80, and he'll do it right with DuPont 1:1 paint & clear).

I mean it's one thing to make a couple hundred on something with paint and what not, I wouldn't argue with somebody about that and would still consider buying from them. But giving the same same price as somebody who lives across the country where shipping costs would become a big factor? I don't get it.
